New Erin Morgenstern novel!!!! The Starless Sea
I really want to start reading it but I don't want to have to stop reading it to, like, work and whatnot so I am hesitating at the Table of Contents
Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
I'm reading Seanan McGuire's "Laughter at the Academy" - it's a collection of short stories. One I'd read before but, so far, the rest have been new to me.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I was really on track to finish my reading goal this year, and then this month I have started a zillion books and haven't been able to finish anything, and they're things I really want to read but I find myself zoning out and having no idea what I just read or falling asleep. At least audiobooks are still working for me.

It's new ... I'd pre-ordered it, forgot its release date and then, one day, it was there! (I got it in e-book format ... not sure if it's in print) Also, recently re-read "Into the Drowning Deep" ... and still enjoyed it. Wasn't quite as scary, since I knew how it would end.

That's exactly how I got The Starless Sea. Living in the future

After I posted in here my signed copy of The Starless Sea arrived with a bonus keychain! I may try to start it tonight.

The status is NOT quo.
I am also about 25% through Starless Sea!
